| As already written a few days ago I was going to archive Sarge on
| archive.debian.org. That is done, you can get sarge from there now. The
| dists/sarge directory also already disappeared from the regular mirrors a few
| days ago. Im not simply deleting all source and binary packages from Sarge.
| Instead I am doing a removal of 1000 packages every second day, which ends up
| in batches of about 10000 removed files every other day. While that is a
| little more work on the archive side I think it pays off - many mirrors,
| including Debians own ones, limit the amount of files they delete in one
| mirror run and it is much less work than asking every mirror admin to make
| sure it will work on their system.
